A small stone discovered recently in a ditch beside a house in Lateeve Beg is decorated on one face with a Latin cross with expanded terminals. An 8-pronged asterisk occurs beneath the right arm and the letter I or L beneath the left arm. The incisions are narrow and shallow and give the impression of having been executed with a nail or some similar pointed instrument. The stone measures .18m in length x .08m in width. The nearest sites with any religious connotations are Toberteh (KE042-117----), c. 260m to E, and a calluragh (KE042-118001-), c. 50m further E again, but the decoration may be of fairly recent date.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 864. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
